About Serinus
Serinus Biosciences is an AI drug discovery company targeting the convergence of cancer signaling. Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) form the physical core of signaling networks that drive disease emergence and progression. Our Pep-to-Mol platform leverages recent advances in protein structure prediction and our proprietary PPI energetics database to convert any peptide binder, including the natural binding protein itself, to a potent small molecule inhibitor.
We have recently established a number of hit series for a previously undruggable PPI targets in under 4 months of development. Our lead program is a first-in-class PPI target with a market opportunity of >$20B (in the US alone) across a diverse set of lethal solid tumors. We operate at the cutting edge of AI, biology, and drug design, to develop novel treatments for patients in need.
Founded by MIT graduates, Serinus Biosciences is supported by leading investors, including Illumina Ventures, Vertex Ventures, Y-Combinator, and Merck Digital Science Studios. Our work has been published in leading journals, including Science, Cell, Nature Biotechnology, and Cancer Cell. Our advisory board includes world-renowned researchers from the Broad Institute, Dana Farber Cancer Institute, and UCSD. Join our team to help shape the next generation of cancer treatments!
About the role
We are looking to add a new member to our computational team. In this role, you will be at the intersection of cutting-edge machine learning, computational chemistry, and drug discovery.
